xterm*VT100.Translations only when mouse is over the window with focus

Discovered with click-to-focus, in FVWM

In particular, I'm talking about the function keys. In this case, these
are NOT mapped in fvwm, but in xterm.

Pressing a function key, like F1, always writes to the window with
focus, but only performs the X11/xterm translations when the mouse is
hovering over the window with focus.

So, I always have to move the mouse to the window to be able to write to
the window. Otherwise, \e[P is written to the window, for example

Note that I can visit various windows with keyboard shortcuts, so
there's no natural correspondence with mouse position and window focus.

This failure to do the X11/xterm translation only occurs with x11/cygwin
xterms. Windows opened locally via sshd (port forwarded) behave
normally, performing the translation to the focused window, no matter
where the mouse is.
